Academic & Conduct Standards

Maintaining Good Standing

In order to remain in good standing after being admitted into the UH/SFA Co-op, the student must do the following:

• Continue attending Stephen F. Austin State University
• Maintain a minimum cumulative UH prerequisite GPA of 3.2 and UH prerequisite math/science GPA of 3.2. GPA will be reviewed yearly at the end of the spring semester. Any grade of a "D" or an "F" will automatically make a student ineligible to continue in this program.
• Continue completing UH prerequisite courses
• Meet with the UH-SFA Pre-Pharmacy Cooperative Faculty Director at Stephen F. Austin State University at least twice per semester during the academic year.
• Provide updated transcripts of all undergraduate courses and grades each semester to the University of Houston College of Pharmacy via a signed release form submitted to the UH-SFA Pre-Pharmacy Cooperative Faculty Director at Stephen F. Austin State University.
• Remain in good standing at Stephen F. Austin State University, including compliance with SFA's Student Code of Conduct (Policy and Procedures Manual, Student Conduct, Section D-34.1).

Probation and Dismissal

For purposes of probation and dismissal, compliance with academic standards will be evaluated at the end of the fall and spring semesters only. Summer course work will be evaluated the following fall semester. Evaluation will begin with the spring semester of the freshman year.

A student admitted to the UH-SFA Cooperative Pre-Pharmacy Program who fails to meet the above academic or conduct standards may be:

1. Placed on probation with appropriate counseling and academic assistance required, or
2. Terminated from the program at the end of the semester during which the student failed to meet the requirements.

A student's participation in the program is automatically terminated if for two consecutive semesters the student fails to meet the above requirements without good cause as determined by UHCOP. Students terminated from the program will receive a letter indicating that this action has been taken.
